JavaGroups - A Reliable Multicast Communication Toolkit for Java

JavaGroups is a group communication toolkit written entirely in Java. It is based on IP multicast, but extends it with

1. reliability and
2. group membership.

Reliability includes

• lossless transmission of a message to all recipients (with retransmission of missing messages)
• fragmentation of large messages into smaller ones and reassembly at the receiver's side
• ordering of messages, e.g. messages m1 and m2 sent by P will be received by all receivers in the same order, and not as m2, m1 (FIFO order)
• atomicity: a message will be received by all receivers, or none.
